	The Martian Child - Rotten Tomatoes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Currently, there are not enough Tomatometer critic reviews for The Martian Child to receive a rating.
		The romantic drama Martian Child stars John Cusack as a recently widowed science fiction writer who forms an unlikely family with a close friend (Amanda Peet) and a young boy he adopts that claims to be from Mars.
		The new couple ignores some sage parenting advice from the widower’s sister (Joan Cusack) and gets more than they bargained for when a series of strange occurrences lead them to believe that the child’s claim may be true.

	The Martian Child by David Gerrold
		He stumbles upon a photograph of eight-year-old Dennis, a slight, blond boy abandoned by an alcoholic mother as a baby, who is approaching the age when placement is doubtful.
		For about two years, he deals with being a single, gay parent of a child who insists that he is a "Martian," a common psychological defense mechanism used by abused and neglected children.
		The account moves quickly and somewhat sporadically and selectively through about 24 months of adjustment, doubt and finally acceptance of a situation that often has the potential for disaster, although no genuine crises are detailed.

		The hardest thing about adoption is that you have to ask someone to trust you with a child.
		That means that you have to be willing to let them scrutinize your entire life, everything: your financial standing, your medical history, your home and your belongings, your upbringing, your personality, your motivations, your arrest record, your IQ--even your sex life.

	SF Signal: REVIEW: The Martian Child by David Gerrold
		In the semi-autobiographical story, based on Hugo and nebula award winning 1994 novelette, David Gerrold tells the touching story of a science fiction writer that adopts an eight year old boy who was the victim of child abuse.
		The story swerves a bit off target in the middle when the father starts believing that the boy might really be a Martian instead of just reacting to the unfortunate circumstances of his childhood.
		Far from the truth as "Dennis" resided at one the most respected child welfare agencies in the United States, Children's Bureau of So.

	Amazon.com: The Martian Child: A Novel About A Single Father Adopting A Son: Books: David Gerrold (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Gerrold eventually took Dennis, the child in the photo, home and began the work of earning the acceptance of a hyperactive, severely insecure eight-year-old who desperately wanted a father but thought of himself as a Martian and, therefore, probably unworthy.
		Gerrold's memoir of the first two years Dennis was with him ends with the crisis of Dennis running away and waiting in a city park at night for the saucers to come and whisk him back to a world he might be able to manage.
		Secondly the complexities that come with adopting an older child with a traumatic background are also brushed over in favor or the positive "touching" parts.
